Directus is seen on the world map in Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War, but is seen and is the battlefield of a conflict in Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War. The Ustio Capital, Directus. Once an old Ustio historic city which had survived the Dark Ages. As it grew, much of the city had become unorganized. Known as "The Inland Jewel", its population reached 1,390,000 citizens. It is constituted from five administrative areas divided by the River Crescere. For years, the city has produced various amount of fine craftsmanship products - a fact that is reflected from the city's architecture. It was overshadowed by the industrial might of Belka. It was taken over by Belkan Forces in 1995 by the Blitzkrieg at the opening of the Belkan War.
The Belkan War (Op. Constantine)
On May 13th of 1995, after successfully completing Operation: Varsity, the Ustian military launches an all out attack against Belkan forces in Directus. Their target was the five administrative wards centered on the River Crescere; these wards made up the Belkan Army's Ustio-Branch Headquarters. Each ward was heavily defended, primarily by ground forces, however there were also reports of a Hi-tech Belkan squadron in the area. As the attack began, lead by the Galm Team, the citizens in Ustio began to ring bells through out the city. The attack continued as administrative wards were completely wiped out and the city was slowly reclaimed. With the destruction of the last ward and with the now freed citizens flooding the streets, the Belkan 23rd Tactical Fighter Squadron 'Gelb' arrived lately over Directus. With intentions to retake the city, the Gelb Squadron attacked the Galm team. After an engagement the 23rd TFS was destroyed and air superiority over Directus was secured.
